Is a subdural hemorrhage terminal disease?

No, a subdural hemorrhage is not necessarily a terminal disease. The prognosis and long-term outcome of a subdural hemorrhage depend on several factors, including the severity of the bleeding, the underlying cause, and the individual's overall health and age.

While subdural hemorrhages can be life-threatening, particularly if they are large or exert significant pressure on the brain, many cases are mild and resolve with proper treatment. With timely diagnosis and appropriate medical intervention, such as surgical drainage or medication to reduce swelling, many individuals with subdural hemorrhages can achieve full recovery or manage their condition effectively.
